Your remarks are correct. Perception is indeed everything for those who are on perpetual display. Moreover, the tribal leaders really brought up an explosive topic when they demanded the return of property taken by the crown to bestow upon the Queen and her family. This is the classic ominous rumble about breaking the informal but vital bonds of trust between the monarch and his feudal retainers. In England it was when the gentry started murmuring ‘that's not fair dealing’, that the monarch knew there was real trouble brewing.

You know, when these women become princesses, and future Queens, for the life of me I will never understand why they suddenly try ot move in the world as movers and shakers instead of wives and mothers. Their JOB is supposed to be there for their husbands and enjoy the luxuries and understand that they are supposed to represent the female ‘face’ of the nation, not move in politics in their own right, which is kind of usurping the position of the govenrment elected by the people. If I married a prince, I would be too busy spending time wiht my kids, arranging receptions, and traveling with my husband on state visits (while smothering myself in couture and jewels) to want to worry about politics.

A huge problem wiht ‘modern monarchies’ is that they overstep the lines with the consorts not just promoting causes, but posing with heads of state in their own right. Royals cannot interfere and these women are not supposed to meddle, but instead remember that they are there ot have kids and be support systems to their husbands when sent overseas.
